Does character matter to evangelicals any more?

[rightwinger]

And if Evangelicals decided tomorrow to only vote for candidates of strong conservative moral character who belong to an Evangelical Church, there's nothing you could do about it except complain. They would still allow you to do that.

Of course not
We live in a Democracy

Explain any irony
Do you know what that means?

I've already explained it in multiple posts, maybe you just need to read? Not surprised that you don't understand.

So, they only need a good reason to do it. Better get on that right away and keep demanding that they vote for strong moral character only.

Sorry Skippy
But our Constitution is true

What you stated is not in the Constitution. As a matter of fact, it's really poor trolling on your part.

 

[OldFlame]

They can vote for whoever they want

Just calls into question the legitimacy of what they are preaching

As if you would find anything they preached as legitimate.

 

[BULLDOG]

From the side of double standards, are you really in a position to be asking this question?

Is it unfair to expect evangelicals to follow their own stated standards?

Especially when they don’t follow their own preaching

The Bible is chalked full of flawed men bringing about his will.

The first person was Adam and it did not get much better thereafter.

Yet democrats aren't afforded the same leeway. Hypocritical?

 

[BULLDOG]

You loons set the bar low with Clinton, even told us a blow job wasn't sex. So don't cry about it, it was you loons that did this. Even put a incestuous pedophile in the White House, can't set the bar any lower than that.

So trump and Clinton both deserve equal distain, right? Anything less is hypocritical. What did the bible say about hypocrisy?

Condemn Clinton, but praise trump for the same thing, right?

Fairness has nothing to do with it. The question you should be asking is how much validation and credibility you have coming from the side that has double standards for itself, if any.

Oh, they certainly should all agree publicly that they will vote only for the strongest of moral character, that the only candidates that get votes have to be Evangelicals themselves.

When the dems get any morals at all you be sure to let us know.

When you cult members acknowledge how hypocritical you are, let me know.

Hypocrisy is demanding someone hold themselves to a standard you have no intention of holding yourself.

Why?

Why do you continue making theocratic arguments? I thought you guys don't WANT a theocracy, yet it seems that every time we turn around, here come the same arguments and references to the Bible.

Trump Evangelicals

I know what you're trying to do here, and I want you to consider the logical extension of what you're saying. Consider if you got what you want, and all the American Evangelicals publicly agree to vote ONLY for candidates with the absolutely highest moral character, candidates that belong to and are members in good standing in an Evangelical church, IOW, one of their own.

How long would it be before democrats started running around screaming about a theocracy and demanding that Evangelicals stop insisting on such high moral character?

Got it. You already insist on high moral character, but just for democrats. Your cult leader can lie, cheat, and steal while grabbing all the ***** he can get his hands on.
Your deeply held religious beliefs are less important than politics.
